hi all...now planning my new tank...

main tank:

2ft cube

most likely to go for mixed reef,mainly SPS with some LPS...inspired by non other than DeepBlue...

with a few fishes, mostly small fishes like gobies and of course my dearest flame hawk...

sub tank:

3ft X 1ft X 1ft

might either go for FOWLR to keep some non reef safe fishes like lemonpeel angel or other worst reef nightmares...

if not will be switch into a holding(not quarantine) tank for new fishes and new corals...

sump:

3ft X 1ft X 1ft acrylic sump

will design it to fit a skimmer, fluidise reactor, calcium reactor and kalk reactor

wavemaker:both tanks will run on the same sump with only 1 return pump (rio 20HF)...

main tank will run with 2 X rio seio 820 (while awaiting 1100 to come into singapore)...sub tank will only have 1 rio seio 820 if not nothing at all...

lightings:

main tank will be using 1 X 250W 10kk + 2 X 24W actinic t5...

sub tank will be using 2 X 24W t5...trying to save electricity...

temperature control:

same as b4, will be using 2 X profantic fans to cool my tank..this time will probably get a chiller as well, to work as back up during warm seasons...

main reason y i will be using fans is to get the evaporation high enough for me to top up kalk...i dun think i can afford to run a CR anytime soon...this way, i can top up calcium and dkh manually,on top of kalk...

nutrient export:

will be building yet another spray eductor skimmer, will try to build it as large as possible...

dun think i will be running any refugium...too much trouble...

both tanks will not be using any DSB,just a thin layer of sand to make it look natural...

here's a peek into my new setup...

pls comment as much as possible..experts, non experts and newbies are all welcome!!!

Just nicely???  :unsure:  :unsure:  :unsure:

That would means no room for adjustment or such if they calculation went wrong. Pardon me for saying this, coz me always like to leave some room for mistake.

a bit of allownace lah...my tv console can shift to the right to free up some space...hopefully i can get all the stuffs in soon...

2ft cube tank from AquabeAnz, free...if not get from sunny03 $50....

3 X 1 X 1 tank from *** ****, free also...

3ft stand from *** ****, free also...

hoods for both tanks, free also...

just have to pay for wood to make the 2ft cube stand and the acrylic sump...so prolly only gonna spend about $200 for this set up... :lol::lol::lol:

Yo Dude!

Sounds like some hard and concrete plans for the next tank eh? :lol:

Glad to see tat!! Hehe..

Hmm...Just a comment...

I was thinking if there is a need to reconsider utilising 1x250W MH in your 2ft cube. IMO, thats gonna boil your tank in no time eh? Hopefully you can use a chiller to complement with your fans.

Anyway fans are a good idea thinking that the top up can be used for kalk! =)

2x rio seio 820!! haha.. time to see sand bed FLY!! hahaha...

Can imagine your new tank liao! Nice thoughts. So put them into action soon! Good luck and all the best!

Just my $0.02 worth. Ancelot ;)
